A longer session

Gentle full body

Slow, even strokes over the whole body, for the day you have more energy or want more time.

We ask about pressure and any area to avoid, and then work one area at a time with a sheet or blanket over the rest of you. The touch is light and unhurried. If you would rather lie on your side, we use pillows to support you.

  • 45 or 60 minutes

  • On a table or on your side

  • Light touch unless you ask for more

In the session

Four steps, taken slowly

  1. 01

    Step 1: We talk first

    A few minutes on pressure, comfort and anything your team has asked you to avoid.

  2. 02

    Step 2: You get settled

    On your back, your front or your side, with pillows and a blanket. We step out while you do.

  3. 03

    Step 3: Slow strokes

    One area uncovered at a time, then covered again. We check in every few minutes.

  4. 04

    Step 4: Time to rest

    A few quiet minutes at the end, and the quiet room afterward if you would like it.

Always

Covered, light and your call

  • Covered

    A sheet or blanket the whole time. Only the part we are working on is uncovered.

  • Light pressure

    We start light and stay there unless you ask. Lighter or firmer, just say.

  • Your call

    You can pause, change position or end the session at any time. We stop right away.

About full-body sessions

Which length should I choose?

Forty-five minutes is a good second visit after a short first one. Sixty minutes gives more time where you choose. If you are unsure, start shorter; you can add time on the day.

Do I need to ask my care team first?

Yes. Please ask before you book and again if your treatment changes, and tell us about any area to avoid.

What if I cannot lie on my front or back?

We offer a side-lying session with pillows between and behind you. Tell us on the booking page which position suits you.
